The constable had been there for hours, The inspector was about to arrive.
"Officer it's so good to see you how unfortunate it's under such dire circumstances!"
"Indeed my old friend lets not tarry further, the crimescene is just through the hall in the study. And it's terrible, terrible, oh no... What a grizzly scene, but more grizzlys what it means. And I can easily discern, how the incident occured. But it's Terrible, terrible, oh no..."
"The way that I see it," said the constable "Is the maid got him from behind, while he read. The blood on that bust of Vidocq proves i'm right!"
"Not quite," Said Inspector, "it's all very clever the planting of the bludgeon, the framing of the live-in, but I know the victim was no friend of your office... He called for reform of the police department. And it's terrible, terrible, oh no... What a grizzly scene, but more grizzlys what it means. And I can easily discern, how the incident occured. But it's Terrible, terrible, oh no...""
"The way that it transpired my darling Constable: you came to him calling saying that you'd like to discuss all the pressing issues lulling him into a state of false security! Then you struck him with your billy club! You tried to clean it off but I can still see blood and the wound it left matches up to an item of that weight and size unlike the bust you planted!"
